BACKGROUND TO THE RISK PREPAREDNESS WORKSHOP World Heritage properties, as with all heritage properties, are exposed to natural and man- made disasters, which threaten their integrity and may compromise their values. The loss or deterioration of these outstanding properties would negatively impact the national and local communities, both for their cultural importance as a source of identity and of information on the past, and for their socio-economic value1. Actually, due to the increasing pressures threatening

It can take many forms. It is usually described as a package of objects, places and activities which are seen to reflect the values and beliefs that a family, community or nation wish to pass on to future generations. Yet, society changes over time and the way in which the selection of particular events, personalities, skills or places that are branded as `Heritage’ are remembered and perceived can also change. The `Past, Present and Future of Namibian Heritage’ Conference seeks to provide some time and space for us to exchange opinions. We want to learn HERITAGE lessons from the Past, review our Present practices and plan for the Future. /ˈhɛrɪtɪdʒ/ Participants in this Conference will have many different views, but we believe that by listening and learning from each other we will, together, build a noun common vision. noun: heritage; plural noun: heritages 1.

Now, the academic atmosphere that provided a valuable anchor, too, must be hauled up for journeys beyond. The end of this most enjoyable academic challenge has arrived, but I cannot look back without a sense of loss - loss of continuous joys of discovery and academic enrichment.

  • Motivated Identity Construction in a Cultural
    MOTIVATED IDENTITY CONSTRUCTION IN A CULTURAL CONTEXT MARIANA MARTIN FEBRUARY 2014 i MOTIVATED IDENTITY CONSTRUCTION IN A CULTURAL CONTEXT A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS (CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGY) OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NAMIBIA BY MARIANA MARTIN FEBRUARY 2014 SUPERVISOR: DR ARMAS E. E. SHIKONGO ii ABSTRACT The present study investigated the concept of motivated identity construction, using a sample of 104 participants who were recruited through convenient sampling. The following motives were selected: self-esteem, continuity, belonging, efficacy, distinctiveness and meaning. These were the motives that previous studies found to be centrally involved in the process of identity construction. The key role of culture in identity construction was also critically investigated. The study used a quantitative approach and employed an already existing questionnaire for data collection. The participants‘ cultural orientation towards individualism/ collectivism was determined by measuring their beliefs about personhood and their degree of religiosity. The data was analysed using independent-samples t-tests and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). The study found statistically significant differences between males and females in relation to the motive of efficacy. In terms of age, the study also found a statistically significant difference between the participants who were below 18 years of age and those who were at least 18 years of age when the two age groups were compared in relation to the meaning motive. However, the magnitude of the differences in the means was small. The study did not find any statistically significant differences in relation to the following motives: belonging, continuity, distinctiveness, efficacy, meaning and positive self-esteem between the various cultural groupings compared.

AN AFRICAN CASE STUDY Halle / Saale 2000 ISSN 1615-4568 Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology, P.O. Box 110351, 06107 Halle / Saale, Phone: +49 (0)345 2927-0, Fax: +49 (0)345 2927-402, http://www.eth.mpg.de, e-mail: [email protected] 1 Dealing with institutional changes in property regimes. An African case study. Thomas Widlok1 Introduction: A sort of communism in Africa “[…] although in effect it approaches a sort of communism, [the economic life of a Bushman band] is really based on the notion of private property.” (Schapera 1930:147) “ […] although an apparently pure communism is observable in the life of the Naman, actually this is not found. Everybody has his own property, which he seeks to increase and improve, and, preferably unobserved by others, to use for himself.” (Schapera 1930:319-320) Europeans have been confused about the property regimes that they have encountered in Africa and in non-European contexts more generally. Schapera’s comments quoted above summarize the dominant views at the time about Khoisan-speaking people in southern Africa, Nama (Khoekhoe- speakers, then called “Hottentots”) and “Bushmen” (now often called “San”). In southern Africa in particular confusion about local property regimes is closely linked to a deliberate disregard of these property regimes in the process of large-scale dispossession of land, cattle and other resources for the benefit of a growing European settler community. The claim that “Bushmen” do not know property has been used as a way of dispossessing them of their land (see Gordon 1989:143).

  • Namibia, South Africa, and the Walvis Bay Dispute
    Notes Namibia, South Africa, and the Walvis Bay Dispute Walvis Bay is a port situated on the coast of the emerging nation of Namibia.' The Republic of South Africa currently occupies and con- trols both Namibia and Walvis Bay.2 Namibia will soon be an inde- pendent nation free from South African control; the Pretoria govern- ment, however, alleges that the colonial title it inherited from the United Kingdom gives it sovereignty over the Bay,3 despite the com- mon history, culture, and economic and political systems shared by the Bay and Namibia. This Note argues that the South African claims are invalid and that, legally, the Bay belongs to and therefore must remain with Namibia. The South African legal claim is based on carefully selected his- torical facts and legal theories. South Africa omits certain colonial his- torical facts that undermine its claim, and it overlooks contemporary international law that requires precolonial history to be considered in decolonization disputes. This Note will show that South Africa has relinquished its title to the Bay under three theories of current inter- national law: 1) the norms of international estoppel bar South Africa from separating Walvis Bay and Namibia; 2) the boundaries of non- self-governing territories granted independence may be determined on 1. This Note will use "Walvis Bay" or "the Bay" to refer to the harbor, city, and surrounding enclave as claimed by the British in 1878. See I. BROWNLIE, AFRICAN BOUNDARIES 1273-88 (1979) (describing area claimed by British). This Note will use the name "Namibia" to refer to the geographic area designated on many maps by the colonial appellation "South West Africa." The name Namibia is now used by the indigenous groups in the territory and has been recognized by the United Nations as the official name of the territory.

  • Advancing the Owela Display Centre, National Museum of Namibia
    ADVANCING THE OWELA DISPLAY CENTRE, NATIONAL MUSEUM OF NAMIBIA Sponsoring Agency: The National Museum of Namibia Anzel Veldman, Curator, Owela Display Centre SUBMITTED BY: Nigel Cochran Lauren Edwards Victoria Howland Caitlin Quinn IKS Project Number: NAM 7 Division # 54 ADVANCING THE OWELA DISPLAY CENTRE, NATIONAL MUSEUM OF NAMIBIA An Interactive Qualifying Project Report submitted to the Faculty of WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science by Nigel Cochran Lauren Edwards Victoria Howland Caitlin Quinn Date: May 4, 2011 Approved: Professor Ingrid Shockey, Major Advisor Professor Ulrike Brisson, Co-Advisor ABSTRACT This report contains two aspects for the improvement of the Owela Display Centre: two guided-tour pamphlets and a restroom exhibit. The brochures provided supplementary text to the exhibits and the exhibit in the restrooms increased the museum’s aesthetic appeal. We also improved community involvement with the museum by engaging underprivileged students in the creation of the exhibit. Not only did our projects benefit the museum, but also the students who were exposed to a technical life skill and new possibilities. i EXECUTIVE SUMMARY National museums are an important part of any country as they ensure the preservation of significant aspects of that country’s heritage. The National Museum of Namibia is no different, with a mission to ―preserve, understand and explain the material heritage of our country for present and future generations, that they may study, enjoy, take pride in and learn from these assets‖ (National Museum of Namibia, 2003, para. 5). The Owela Display Centre at the National Museum of Namibia houses exhibits on the cultures and wildlife of Namibia.
